If public skating rinks don't quite make the grade, here's how to make your own.

GROUND

1. Mark the boundaries of the future ice rink.
2. Make the surface level.
3. Cover the surface level with sand at least 5cm thick if you have any.
4. Put a layer of snow on top (at least 8-10 cm thick), firm it and flatten it out. Form a 7-10 cm high border out of snow around the ice rink.
5. Put up a plywood or net fence around the rink.

FILLING THE ICE RINK

1. Fill the rink with water when the weather is clear and the air temperature is below -5C.
2. Hold th water hose upwards so that the flow has the shape of a hand fan. This will help make the surface even, recommended angle 35-45.
3. Begin adding water at the far end of the rink and slowly move backwards. Try not to leave any empty spaces.
4. Repeat two or three times every three or four hours.
5. For the final round, use warm water.
6. The ice layer should be at least 12-15 cm.

TIPS

Clear the surface and fill cracks with melting snow before each round of filling.

Provide benches people can use to put on their skates or take a breather.

Use cold water to fill in the grooves and gouges left by skates. Use hot water to smooth the ice.

EXTEND A REMOTE'S RANGE
If you are opening a gate with a remote, and you are a bit out of range, put it under your chin pointing upward. Your skull is a close enough approximation to a parabolic reflector to direct some extra energy forward giving you extra distance.

YOUR HAND AS A RULER
Measure your hand from your fingertips to palm and memorize it. Now you can judge the size of anything without a ruler. Try to pick a finger that is pretty close to a standard length (1inch). You will never need a ruler to estimate again.

TEST A REMOTE
If you point a TV/DVD remote at a cellphone camera and press any button, you can see the infrared light. This trick will also let you see if IR security cameras are on in the dark.

EXTRA BATTERIES
9volt batteries contain six AAAA sized cells that can be used in electronics that take AAA batteries. Small sized 12volt batteries contain eight 1,5volt button cell batteries , which retail for $3-$5 each.

1. Sour smell or no smell
2. Does not cause
3. Separates into layers

7. Has foam

HOME LABORATORY
In order to boost profits, some producers dilute honey with sugar syrup and molasses. To increase thickness they add flour, starch, chalk, sand and even sawdust.

-Hold a lighted match to the honey. If it is natural honey it will melt and not begin to hiss straight away.
-Mix the honey in water. Natural honey will not dissolve. If you add 2-3 drops of iodine to the solution it will not turn blue.
-Put some honey onto a piece of paper. If a damp patch spreads around it then it is diluted.
-Dip a piece of stale bread into the honey. After 8-10 minutes it should still be firm and not soften.
-Mix some water into the honey and add 2-3 drops of vinegar essence. If the solution becomes foamy it is adulterated honey.
-Heat a stainless steel piece of wire and insert it into the honey. A good product will stick to the metal and not flow back into the jar.

Cuffed denim is as old as the blue jean itself. And every couple of decades, a new proportion or trend emerges. In the '50s and '60s, the style was carefree single cuff but by the '80s and '90s, it was atrim, tight roll. Today's cuffs are croping up in every style.

How to do it: Simply turn up the hem. The width can vary from a quarter-inch to over two inches.

WIDE CUFF
What it says: You're easy and a tad rugged. Or you couldn't be bothered to have your jeans hemmed.
How to do it: Fold your hem up and over twice. Run your fingers around the cuff to ensure a crisp crease.

TRIM CUFF
What it says: You prefer a tailored, traditional look. Or you feel it's the only style that pairs well with narrow jeans.

THE ROLL
